Good evening.
The Dawley and Malinslee Safer Neighbourhood Team have been made aware of Rogue Traders in the Horsehay area.
What are Rogue Traders? Do not buy goods or services from doorstep traders (If you do, my advice to you is to pay by credit card as this will give you the opportunity to claim your money back should you need to) Do not open the door if you do not know the caller Do not let a stranger into your home. Do display a warning card that you do not buy goods or services at the door. Do use a door chain on both the front and back door. Do check ID cards. Do make a note of any vehicle details (the registration number, any business name, etc.) DO report suspicious callers to Trading Standards, the Citizens Advice Consumer Helpline number is 0808 223 1133. Trading Standards will use the information you give to decide if they’ll investigate. They’ll only contact you if they need more information. Even if Trading Standards don't contact you, they might use your evidence to act against the business in the future. For example, if other people make complaints about the same business.
For further information or for general advice, please do not hesitate to contact us at: dm.snt@westmercia.police.uk
Kind regards PCSO Ellis
